Definitions

  • the present invention relates to compounds which are non-peptidyl in structure and active as potent inhibitors of the binding of very late antigen-4 (VLA-4; ⁇ ⁇ j; CD49d/CD29) to proteins such as vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), the Hepll/lllCS domain (CS-1 region) of fibronectin and osteopontin. As such they are useful in the inhibition of cell adhesion and consequent or associated pathogenic processes subsequently mediated by VLA-4.
  • VCAM-1 vascular cell adhesion molecule-1
  • CS-1 region Hepll/lllCS domain
  • the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may be used in the treatment of many inflammatory, autoimmune and respiratory diseases, especially asthma,
  • VLA-4 is a member of a superfamily of cell surface macromolecular receptors called integrins, which are non-covalent heterodimeric complexes consisting of an subunit and a ⁇ subunit (Hemler, Ann. Rev. Immunol., 8, ⁇ .365, 1990). Eighteen different ⁇ subunits have been identified and labeled ⁇ , - ⁇ 10 , ⁇ L , w , ⁇ x . ⁇ 0 . ⁇ uy. ⁇ u B , ⁇ v and ⁇ e; while eight different ⁇ subunits have been identified and labeled ⁇ , - ⁇ 8 .
  • Each integrin molecule can be categorized into a subfamily based on the type of its ⁇ and ⁇ subunits. subunits have been identified and labeled ⁇ , - ⁇ 8 . Each integrin molecule can be categorized into a subfamily based on the type of its ⁇ and ⁇ subunits.
  • the ⁇ 4 ⁇ i integrin, VLA-4 is an integrin constitutively expressed by all leukocytes (e.g., monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils, eosinophils, mast cells and macrophages) except polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
  • leukocytes e.g., monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils, eosinophils, mast cells and macrophages
  • the binding of this integrin to one of its ligands has a number of known cell adhesion and activation functions (Hemler, Ann. Rev. Immunol., 8, p.365, 1990; Walsh et al., Clin. and Exp. Allergy, 25, p. 1128, 1995; Huhtala et al., J. Cell Biol, 129, p. 867, 1995).
  • VCAM-1 vascular cell adhesion molecule-1
  • FN extracellular matrix protein fibronectin
  • VLA-4 cell adhesion interactions has been established by the use of specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) antagonists of the ⁇ subunit of VLA-4, which have demonstrated that inhibitors of VLA-4 dependent cell adhesion prevent or inhibit numerous inflammatory, respiratory and autoimmune pathological conditions (Chisholm et al., Eur. J. Immunol., 23, p. 682, 1993; Lobb et al., J. Clin. Invest, 94, p. 1722, 1994; Richards et al., Am. J. Respir.
  • mAb monoclonal antibody
  • VLA-4 binding domain in the CS-1 region of fibronectin comprises the octapeptide: Glu-lle-Leu-Asp-Val-Pro-Ser-Thr, as well as two overlapping pentapeptides: Glu-lle-Leu-Asp-Val and Leu-Asp-Val-Pro-Ser. All of these peptides inhibit FN-dependent cell adhesion, leading to the early conclusion that the minimal amino acid sequence required for inhibition would be Leu-Asp-Val (LDV). In fact the LDV minimal inhibitory sequence has been observed to be equally effective as the full length CS-1 fragment in binding the activated form of VLA-4 (Wayner et al, J. Cell Biol., 116, p. 489, 1992).
